Exhibit A Gallery

Here is a first in my custom framing career. Our client had preserved the dress for many years and never opened it. She just wanted a small portion of the dress as a keepsake. So what do we do……cut the bodice right out of the dress. The client was thrilled with the outcome.

Tracey Frugoli is on location in the gallery today (Saturday)demonstrating her painting techniques. Want to learn a little bit more about the Plein Air process?
Stop by for a chat.
